Shower tray repair in Ovingham, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a damaged area around the waste.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ovingham and across Northumberland.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Ovingham
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Ovingham
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ovingham. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
